Television presenter Ruth Langsford recently spoke candidly about finding love again following her separation from her husband, Eamonn Holmes.
The longtime television couple, who hosted This Morning together, announced their divorce proceedings in May 2024 after 14 years of marriage and 27 years as a couple.
Ruth Langsford made it clear that while she is happy on her own right now, she remains open to a new relationship in the future.
She stated that she is "fine on my own but not forever."
Ruth, a regular panelist on Loose Women and a successful presenter on QVC, has chosen to focus on herself and her career while navigating the split.
She described the end of her marriage as "difficult and painful," acknowledging that going through a divorce in the public eye, where everyone has an opinion, makes the process harder.
However, Ruth Langsford explained her choice to move forward with strength.
She said people have a choice: “You can let yourself crumble or you pick yourself up and get on with life.”
Ruth emphasized that she accepts her marriage is over and is now embracing the fact that she is single and can make decisions that are solely about her.
Sources close to Ruth Langsford confirm she is looking forward to the future and is reportedly ready to start dating again, but only on her own terms.
Sources say she prefers friends setting her up rather than diving into the world of online dating, which she finds "scary."
While Ruth focuses on her new independent life, her ex-husband Eamonn has moved on and is in a relationship with relationship counsellor Katie Alexander.
Reports suggest that Eamonn’s new romance has complicated the divorce process, which Ruth is eager to finalize so she can fully move on.
Ruth recently poked fun at her single status on live television.
During a discussion on Loose Women, a fellow panelist mentioned that studies show men live longer when they are married, while women tend to live longer when they are not.
Ruth playfully responded, "Good to know!" sharing a laugh with the audience.
Ruth Langsford continues to shine as a television personality, dedicating her time to her work, her son Jack, and her beloved rescue dog Maggie, proving she is picking herself up and getting on with her life.
